Door to Door drug survey
WINSOR - Local Drug Action Committee will be doing a much needed door to door drug survey from 4 until 8 November.
In an effort to know more about drugs in the community, LDAC together with ward 98 Councillor Laurette van Zijl from Fairland, will be doing a door-to-door survey in Windsor East and West from 4 until 8 November.
“The purpose of the survey is primarily to find out what are the needs with regard to drugs and drug usage in the suburb, for example rehab and counselling,” said Van Zijl.
“It is also geared to finding individuals and NGOs who can assist in the fight against drug usage in the area.”
Residents are urged to participate in the survey by filling in the forms when asked to.
Van Zijl also informed that volunteers have already started going around the suburb, but the big drive will take place on Saturday 8 November. Residents can also assist by joining the survey team on the final day.
The drive will be coordinated from the Windsor East Recreation Centre in Viscount Ave, and cnr George in Windsor East as from 9.30 am.
The survey consist of 15 personal questions which will need people’s honest answers, said Van Zijl.
LDAC will then have its official launch meeting and function on 15 November at the Robin Hills Primary School from 10am to also encourage schools, Department of Health and police to get involved in preventing drugs in the community.
